Sources tell me the #BlueJays have offered a 3-year contract to free agent pitcher Brett Cecil.

[Krylian]

I don't have a problem with this, depending on what the dollar value is.

[jaysguy44]

f*** off. We want Logan!!!!

[KingKat]

If you ignore ERA and look at rate stats, Cecil just had one of the best seasons of his career even though it didn't feel that way at all. He could easily be the steal of the reliever market.

a. Cecil is younger and better.

b. There's room for both.

[Jonn]

Cecil back for three years would cause mass depression among casuals.

 

Let's do it.

I love this front office. They don't give a f*** about "winning" the off-season. Instead of swinging for the fences, they just go about the quiet business of efficiently acquiring wins. Reminds me of the widely panned Red Sox off season of 2012-2013 where they "settled" for mid-tier free agents like Victorino, Napoli and Ross and went on to win the World Series.

3 years 16m anyone?

[Bobthe4th]

What's a fair amount for both sides? $6-7m AAV?

[BigCecil]

Get this done. Tough year in some ways but still love the Cecil. His 2016 numbers overall were pretty good.

The number they mutually agree on would be fair to say.

 

5-6 ish would be nicer! Lol

I think I'd have to read the Sportsnet comments if this happens.

Don't get me wrong - I agree.....but most said that about Loup after his 2015 season (Christ you could even suggest that about Loup after this season).

[Governator]

He's probably the only guy who'll consider giving the Jays a hometown discount as well.

[Sammy225]

If he was all about the money there is no way he is signing before the big dogs go.

[KingKat]

Loup never projected to be more than an effective loogy though so it's not like he widely under performed, his projection was fairly limited to begin with.

[G-Snarls]

Absolutely

 

At anything close to 3 years 15-20M he has very good chance to provide reasonable value, and stability for the pen

You're that guy.... You just had to take it too far.

 

Damn you Brownie!!! Lol

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

I give him six if he wears the Waldo Glasses and comes out to " Wild Thang" lol

Don't mind Cecil as long as the Jays get Jansen. They need another premium arm in the pen. Osuna goes to setup, Jansen closes. Or you just use 2 closers, rotate, so the jays can finish off close games.

[SweetSmellingChacin]

I'm guessing it will be in the 3/20 range, which I'm fine with.

Yeah. We need Ace reliva ala Cecil-Delabar couple years ago.

 

5/80M for Jansen please

[BlueJayWay]

MLBTR predicted Cecil signing a 3 yr, $18M deal (albeit for Seattle..)

I really like how this front office works, and I like 90% of what they've done so far

Grilli, Cecil, Osuna, Jansen

 

Nice
